Removed the windscreen this morning...liking it better already.
Removed the seat and hard bags/rack. I noticed the rear wheel is not centered at all in the fender...assuming someone did this to get the sprocket and disc aligned. Can't get a wrench between the fender and tire to remove the left side bag basket and sissy bar. I'm going to have to get a lift so I can drop the rear wheel.
Guessing someone swapped the original swingarm when the disc brakes were installed?
Doubt I will go back with a pillion/buddy seat...maybe a luggage rack. I need some ideas on a solo seat. Did'nt this bike originally use a pogo? Do I need to come up with the parts to accomplish this?

Yes. You will need the whole seat post assembly, T bar and seat. But it will be worth it.
Not a fan of these buckhorn handlebars...remind me of a garden tiller. I would much prefer a flatter, tracker type bar. These being two piece, could I cut a standard bar in half so I could use the existing riser clamp and cover?
